IB: LOO orders

Hi,

Does anybody on here have experience with Limit-on-open orders?

I had a limit-on-open order in for 100 AAPL at 210.00.
But it didnt execute (even though the price opened well below my limit price) and I got an error message saying: "Your limit order did not execute at the opening price".

And then the order cancelled itself like its supposed to.

But I wonder why it didn't execute?

This was using the Paper trader, My account has cash 100k so I had enough to easily cover the margin.

Any ideas guys?

I will call IB on monday to find out what the Go is but it would be nice if I could have an idea beforehand.

Cheers.

Nizar.
